    djrr memores


    Recently, I was asked if I remembered the first food I ever cooked. Hotdogs.
    That was way back in the day when our parents didn't care if we burned the house down - using the stove. (this was also the time when a 7 year old could walk two blocks to the corner store to buy his father a carton of kool light ciggys..... for $2 but I digress)

    I vagely remember the stove but I do remember us enjoying this dohicky - it was AMAZING!!!
    I KNOW half of you on facebook remember life BEFORE the microwave, this was the prototype.

    You placed raw hotdogs into the pronged contraption, closed the lid and plug it in, 10 minutes later a hot, juicy oscar meyer goodness.
    Yeah, BOTH ends tasted like melted aluminum foil but in the 70s, speed and convience trumped taste (ie Tang, spam and vienna sausages).

    I LOVED this thing. Now, a goog hot dog and only be found in the 7-11 big bite - times have changed.

    ..and to answer the other question: Naw, I never owned a Damn'd Easy baked oven - mainly because the cakes were too small.
